 One man is no more than another, if he do no more than what another does. |
| Forcing comedy into serious show doesn't mix well often (looking at you, Drifters...) but the rotten potato scene is hilarious no doubt!! So Tanya is heading for an assault to Not-French HQ... expecting Not-UK to send Anson to intercept Tanya... |
| Fake retreat works and the empire is out smarting the republic to a checkmate. The V-1 scene was dope. MAD SCIENTIST IS SO COOOL  |
 |
| I love this series. It's a unique blend of military otakuism, war drama and fantasy with a dose of comedy sprinkled in for good measure. I cannot help but thinking that Tanya's seeiyu must have had a blast doing this role. It must have been hard not to burst out laughing with some of those lines she delivers. That doctor feels like he's based on Dr. Strangelove. Just as completely bananas but more over the top. Bringing in a WW2 V1 weapon in a WW1 setting is just crazy. |

 |
| The rotten fucking potato killed me xD |
 |
| At this point, i will definitely be sad when Weiss and the Second Commander die. |
| The scene when Visha was talking to the blonde soldier was funny... mostly because Taiyanen was agonizing in the same very room. By a rotten potato, no less. The mad scientist return was the highlight of the episode. |
 |
| Great episode. Loved that mad scientist entrance and that soldier being lost because of a rotten potato. HA! Damn you sonzai X! I bet you're the one who did that don't you. |
| I'm no expert, but I don't think V1s or V2s were ever used in a similar historical operation, mainly because of the issues Tanya raised, although there are certain other scenarios where troops are launched / ferried quickly with some type of rockets. |

| I wish this series was longer. |
 |
| I kinda hope this operation won't go as smoothly as planned |
 |
| Poor Tayanen, got rekt by a rotten potato. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |

| Getting boring, somewhat interesting MC doesnt change the fact she never loses, and her squad didnt lose even one member in battlefield, this is just too boring to care in long run. |
| It was pretty funny, yet fucked up at the same time, to see Grantz and Viktoriya sharing a laugh while there was a guy in agonizing pain right next to them. Turns out it was just a rotten potato lol. The next episode should be epic and full of action, based on the way this episode ended. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| After that ending, I'm expecting that the next episode will have some good action. |
  |
| I do not like speed, I definitely would not get inside one of those rockets. Tanya has it pretty rough, she wants to be in one place but because of her success she keeps getting pushed further away from it. Are we about to see some romance between Viktoriya & the other officer? forgot his name. |

| A quasi filler episode, but that was too be expected. However, one this is really funny - that Dr. Schugel seems to be the only one who can really make Tanya disconcerted |
 |
That rotten potato ahahah |
Reverberate said: After that ending, I'm expecting that the next episode will have some good action. Same and I am sure it will. This episode was very much one dedicated to the build up. Mascera said: I thought similarly, but it is obviously foreshadowing and building up to next episode where Being X will make his grand return.Dammit Tanya, do you really have to think about being X ugly face, however he looks like at that moment? Now she gets to ride a rocket?! That's pretty exciting. >_< Can't wait for next week as per usual. Youjo Senki has been a great surprise this season. |

| Not much happened, mostly build up for the next few episodes most likely. The climax of season 1. Pretty excited. As for the guy screaming stomach. At the time I thought he was shot there. Apparently it was a rotten potato. lol hilarious. Who would of thought. No wonder why the other troops were fairly casual. Except the ones attending him acted like it was life and death. What kind of potato gets you sent back for long term treatment. Better be infected with some deadly bacteria. Or his immune system is just that bad. Eat some more citrus fruit man. The plan is straight forward but the execution feels very risky. Betting on untested technology, small group of special forces, minimal territory to retreat to should it fail. And by the looks of it, they are betting everything on this so probably not much chance of recovery should this fail. A literal decisive battle as they called it. It is very overly complicated in sequence based on how they described it. Too dependent on a few small assets. Limited mutual support for each part of the plan. And not everyone seems confident, evidence that they do not have the required advantage to make such a bold move tbh. But high risk high reward. Art of war says no to that. Though many famous generals sure likes to gamble. Sounds like the Japanese Midway battle plan and we all know how that ended. Being aggressive is required but being reckless is not. None of this sounds good. It can work but rarely do a plan go perfectly and this doesn't seem to allow much room for errors. Sooo... ehh practically speaking it is going to fail big time. Maybe pray to being X? Though I doubt he would want the war to end that quickly. Well seems like being X sort of wins. Such a plan would force her to try and believe in God for a victory. Should she not it will fail and it continues. No loss, only gain. Well contrary; Tanya will probably just become more adamant in opposing him. So based on Tanya's personality, there is in fact some loss, but I doubt she can get much more rebellious than that though. |

| Hell yeah! Suck my capitalism, Being X! |
| Gets rekt by a rotten potato, earns Class 1 Combat Medal and Long Term Injuries Medal.... also gets to retire from the fight.... Can't tell if Warrant Officer Teyanen is lucky or....... XD Love the battle, and the BS retreat that they made. The mad doctor appearing again in spectacular fashion was hilarious as heck too. Looking forward to seeing the conclusion of this mission though, since it should signal the change of historic events in her timeline compared with ours. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |

| This episode lacks action department! But the ending music fits! (the ED last episode) V-1 rocket huh speed 1.5 Mach huh!? 4/5. |
 |
MysteriousBanana said: Half were forced to retreat from the operation due to injuries, but no actual deaths. The only one she actually "lost" was struck down by potato poisoning. Oh wow, I thought the people that got exploded and fell died. |
| The best ending is back ;) |
 |
| top 10 plot twists of 2017 lmao |
| Not much to say about this episode, was kind of hoping Tanya would get caught and try to find a way out of their base. Maybe she will run into the father who has gained magical powers and a huge fight will break out. We will know soon |
“You choose to be hurt rather than to hurt others, right?  You’re nice and wonderful. But while it seems like you are choosing both, you’re really forsaking both.” |
| That rotten fucking potato deserves to die!!! |
 |
| OH NOOOO, DOCTOR SCHUGEL IS BACK! :DDD Rocket ride for the win! Rotten potato is the real killer ;D |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Wow, Tanya lost 75% of her battalion this episode. Not sure how many of the remaining will survive to the finale. |
 |
| "Until I pound free-market principles into that piece of shit, I won't die, no matter what!" May Tanya turn God into an anarcho-capitalist. |
 |
| Viktoriya is the ultimate soldier, completely unfazed by even the dire situation at hand. I wasn't expecting a V-1 to appear, though in a different manner than originally designed. Still, it is a rather novel means of transportation. The next episode ought to be epic! A rotten potato... |
It would be amazing if someone could redo the rottentomatoes banner into a rotten potato one. |
| omg so it was a food poisonin joke.. Tayanen... that "war injury medal" is crying~ |
 |
I lost at the potato part |
| Does anyone know who does the voice of Doctor Schugel? And is it the same person who did the voice for Dantalion from Shakugan no Shana? |
MysteriousBanana said: neonie said: Does anyone know who does the voice of Doctor Schugel? And is it the same person who did the voice for Dantalion from Shakugan no Shana? Yep, it's Nobuo Tobita. Nice! I thought I recognized that voice, and that dude reminded me of someone. DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! |
| Tanya had a hard time during the battle this time and the crazy scientist likes using her to test stuff |
 |
| Great plan, wish them luck ;) That engineer is always creating something, that guy is definitely a Nobel prize winner xD Can't wait for next episode!!! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| v1... it really reminds me of Ra2 now next episode is like the movie behind enemy line... that last scene doe... losing a member due to potato... hahahaha |
